Скачать или смотреть Women-Owned Small Businesses: Current Challenges & the Role of Women's Leadership in the Economy

The Women's Congressional Policy Institute (WCPI) held a congressional briefing to discuss women-owned small businesses, current challenges, and women's leadership. This briefing was held in conjunction with the leadership of the bipartisan Congressional Caucus for Women's Issues, and made possible with the support of Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) and Comcast.

During the briefing, we heard personal stories from women entrepreneurs, challenges faced by women in the construction industry, and steps organizations can take to support women leaders,

Thank you to the leadership of the bipartisan Women's Caucus and our speakers, Emily M. Dickens, Peggy Lee-Clark, and Waleska Rivera.
